Oman: Politics, Security, and U.S
Oman: Politics, Security, and U.S. Policy Updated January 27, 2020 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov RS21534 SUMMARY RS21534 Oman: Politics, Security, and U.S. Policy January 27, 2020 The Sultanate of Oman has been a strategic partner of the United States since 1980, when it became the first Persian Gulf state to sign a formal accord permitting the U.S. military to use its Kenneth Katzman facilities. Oman has hosted U.S. forces during every U.S. military operation in the region since Specialist in Middle then, and it is a partner in U.S. efforts to counter terrorist groups and related regional threats. The Eastern Affairs January 2020 death of Oman’s longtime leader, Sultan Qaboos bin Sa’id Al Said, is unlikely to alter U.S.-Oman ties or Oman’s regional policies. His successor, Haythim bin Tariq Al Said, a cousin selected by Oman’s royal family immediately upon the Sultan’s death, espouses policies similar to those of Qaboos. During Qaboos’ reign (1970-2020), Oman generally avoided joining other countries in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC: Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, UAE, Bahrain, Qatar, and Oman) in regional military interventions, instead seeking to mediate their resolution. Oman joined the U.S.-led coalition against the Islamic State organization, but it did not send forces to that effort, nor did it support groups fighting Syrian President Bashar Al Asad’s regime. It opposed the June 2017 Saudi/UAE-led isolation of Qatar and did not join a Saudi-led regional counterterrorism alliance until a year after that group was formed in December 2015. -

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 bLOSiL ZZLL d ABSTRACT This thesis analyses the external and internal influences on the process of state formation in Oman since 1920 and places this process in comparative perspective with the other states of the Gulf Cooperation Council. It considers the extent to which the concepts of informal empire and collaboration are useful in analysing the relationship between Oman, Britain and the United States. The theoretical framework is the historical materialist paradigm of International Relations. State formation in Oman since 1920 is examined in a historical narrative structured by three themes: (1) the international context of Western involvement, (2) the development of Western strategic interests in Oman and (3) their economic, social and political impact on Oman. -

Dossier De Presse 2018 // AVANT-PROPOS
Dossier de Presse 2018 // AVANT-PROPOS Pour le Groupe Renault et ses collaborateurs, voir Renault tracer à nouveau sa route vers le sommet de la F1 est une immense source de fierté. Le sport automobile fait partie intégrante de notre ADN et des courses de Formula E en ville au rallye jusqu’à la F1, nous y avons toujours obtenu des résultats exceptionnels. Renault Sport Formula One Team vise une répétition de ce formidable passé. 2017 a confirmé que nous sommes sur la bonne voie. Nous sommes une équipe en pleine progression. Nous avons deux pilotes talentueux aux dents longues. Le site d’Enstone est revitalisé et les effectifs ont déjà augmenté de plus de 35 %. À Viry, notre engagement à long terme dans plusieurs disciplines nous permet d’élaborer un vrai projet pour nos infrastructures. Jusqu’ici, nos efforts se sont traduits avec succès en piste. En 2017, nous sommes passés de la neuvième à la sixième place du championnat, sans oublier que nous avons conclu l’année avec la quatrième voiture la plus rapide de la grille. La réussite de notre programme en seulement deux ans témoigne du sérieux du projet établi dès la genèse de l’écurie et du travail accompli par Cyril et l’ensemble des équipes de Renault Sport Racing. Je suis convaincu que notre troisième saison nous rapprochera de notre objectif à long terme : les victoires et la lutte pour les titres mondiaux. Nous sommes également satisfaits des résultats que nous observons en dehors des circuits. Les nouveaux propriétaires de la discipline ont lancé de nombreuses initiatives ayant contribué au développement du sport tout en s’impliquant toujours plus auprès des fans. -

Raymond Loretan, New President of the Foundation of the Grand Prix D
PRESS RELEASE Geneva, April 19th 2018 Raymond Loretan, new President of the Foundation of the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG) The Foundation of the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève has enlisted the services of an experienced figure. Raymond Loretan, the new President of the Foundation, took up his position in January 2018. He wishes to continue developing this institution on both national and international levels and to impart fresh momentum. While guaranteeing the strict independence and neutrality of the Grand Prix, he believes the Foundation must explore new modes of cooperation to ensure its sustainability and to continue promoting the reputation of the watch industry both within Switzerland and worldwide. Raymond Loretan succeeded Carlo Lamprecht, who had chaired the Foundation since its creation in 2011. Carlo Lamprecht served the GPHG with energy and dedication, alongside the Director of the Foundation, Carine Maillard. After seven years in this role, he expressed a wish to step down in order to devote more time to other activities. The Board of the Foundation expresses its deep gratitude for his immense contribution to extending Swiss watch industry’s global reach. Raymond Loretan From diplomacy to economics along with politics and the media, Loretan is a man of conviction and commitment. Diplomatic and international experience: after graduating with a law degree from the University of Fribourg and a degree in European law from the University of Strasbourg, he began his career with an internship at the UN in New York and The Hague. He was recruited to the Federal Department of Foreign Affairs in 1983 via the multi-stage competitive process for careers in diplomacy known as the Concours, successively working as Diplomatic Secretary of the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Edouard Brunner; and then as personal assistant to Federal Council Arnold Koller at the Federal Department of Defence and at the Federal Department of Justice and Police between 1987 and 1990. -
